If you're planning a wedding, you're entering a season full of creative freedom, personal expression, and elevated floral artistry. At Kim Starr Wise Floral Events, we've been closely following the trends shaping this year’s most beautiful celebrations, and we’re excited to share what’s inspiring us and our clients right now.

There are some weddings that stay with us long after the installations are taken apart. Ambra and Wilburt’s celebration at the iconic Marigny Opera House was one of those magical days. From the intimate family portraits taken with greenery in the background, to the way the florals played against the venue’s historic charm, every detail was paid attention to.

If you’ve ever received a floral quote for your wedding and felt a bit of sticker shock, you’re not alone—and you’re definitely not the first to ask, “Why are wedding flowers so expensive?” As professional florists, we hear this question often, and we understand where it comes from. Flowers are delicate, beautiful, and seemingly simple—but what goes on behind the scenes is a whole different story.
